Long COVID Recovery Clinic

Long COVID is defined as symptoms that persist for more than four weeks after the initial COVID-19 infection.

Imperial College London estimates that more than 2 million adults in England have had Long COVID for over 12 weeks (24/06/21). This is almost double the previous estimate from the Office of National Statistics (ONS).

 

There are a wide range of Long COVID symptoms that demand a unique, multi-disciplinary approach, so at Chelsea Medics we have affiliated with a team of top London Consultant Specialists in Respiratory, Neurology, ENT, gynaecology, cardiology and sports medicine, as well as Physiotherapists, Dietitians and Psychologists to support our patients suffering with long COVID during their recovery journey.

Our recovery treatment plan is bespoke to your individual needs and, where appropriate, we employ sophisticated tech aids to monitor your recovery.

What sets our Long COVID Recovery Clinic apart?

At Chelsea Medics, we take a comprehensive and holistic approach to the treatment of Long COVID.

This includes:

• Individualised patient programme
• Detailed medical history and full physical examination
• Investigations and referral to top consultant specialists
• Referral to wider team of specialists including physiotherapists, dietitian and psychologists
• MDT approach
• Ongoing monitoring and evolving management programme with technology if appropriate adjusted to the individual

What can I expect during my Long COVID treatment at Chelsea Medics?

Patients would first have a bespoke consultation including past medical history and a comprehensive examination, assessing physical, cognitive and psychological symptoms, as well as your functional abilities.

We will then arrange any necessary investigations and tests to confirm the presence of Long COVID and identify complications. We will review test results, confirm diagnosis with you and then create a management plan that may includes referrals to our recommended specialists if required.

This will be followed-up with ongoing monitoring of your symptoms as well as continued evaluation of the efficacy of any treatment and modification if necessary.

Our aim is to support you in taking control of your symptoms, whatever they may be, and achieving optimal health and wellbeing. If you would like to find out more about our Long COVID Recovery Clinic, please contact us at [email protected].
